[intro]
G D Am Em Am Bm C (2x)
[verse1]
Been [G]waiting[D] to [Am]find[Em]
[Am]you could've been hap[D]pier given the time
If he'd [G]make up[D] his [Am]mind[Em]
You'd give [Am]yourself to an[Bm]ybody who would [C]cross that line
[cborus]
And it was [C]never a [D]question[Em]
He was [Am]crowing[Bm] for [C]repair
You'd give him [C]love and [D]affection
But [Em]you couldn't [D]keep him ther[C]e
[verse2]
Get o[G]ver[D] regre[Am]ts[Em]
While you were [Am]sleeping with the angels he was [D]under the bed
And the m[G]ore sk[D]in that you s[Am]hed[Em]
The more that the [Am]air in your throat w[Bm]ill linger
when you [C]call him your friend
[cborus]
And it was [C]never a [D]question[Em]
He was [Am]crowing[Bm] for [C]repair
You'd give him [C]love and [D]affection
But [Em]you couldn't [D]keep him ther[C]e
[bridge]
[Em]Staring at a [F]cold little hand
Reading [C]fault lines in a [D]shell of a man
You were [Em]waiting for a [F]word from above
[C]Wouldn't you know it
[C]No answer ever did come
[cborus2]
And it was [C]never a [D]question[Em]
You were [Am]crowing [Bm]for r[C]epair
You'd give him [C]love and [D]affection
But [Em]you couldn't [D]keep him ther[C]e
